I'm developing a new preconditioner in PETSc (BDDC), and petsc-dev now
requires metis 5.x. I decided to adapt deal code in order to do a clean
deal.ii installation in a unique PETSc/deal.ii environment. Moreover, metis
5.x assures to give you back a connected decomposition if you ask for that;
also, in the transition from 4.x to 5.x they did a major work in their
include files. As you can see, now you only need to include metis.h into
your code.
